This month's event will be on Saturday January 31st from 1-4pm and will be held at Dreams of Beans
We will have all regular fixing stations available (sewing, electrical and wood/glue)
Our Linux expert is needed to do electrical repairs this month so we will not be doing Linux Repair Cafe this month out but hopefully will have a Linux information/upgrading session at next month's event
What is Linux?
It is a free, community-owned and continuously developed operating system
Why Upgrade?
On October 13th 2026, Microsoft will stop supporting Windows 10 because they want you to buy a new computer. Many old computers and laptops cannot handle the upgrade to Windows 11. That means 240 million PCs and laptops are at risk of being discarded
Fight back against planned obsolescence and save your old computer by making the switch to Linux!

Please Note: To ensure everyone has a chance to have their items looked at, we can complete one electrical fix or two sewing fixes per person at a time.
If you have additional items to be repaired, you’re welcome to sign up again after your initial fix(es) are complete.
Steve from Clean Up Peterborough will be at the event collecting hard to recycle items. You can bring in any of the following items: toothpaste tubes, deodorant packaging, floss, floss picks, flexible cleaning wipe packaging, air and home care trigger heads, pumps and caps, razors, outer 4L milk bags, plastic bread tags, egg cartons, used eyeglasses, used lego bricks, old towels and linens, fishing tackle/line, popcan tabs, dead batteries, old writing instruments and ink cartridges
Hope to see you this month!
